< 1 Chronicles 17 >

1 When David was living in his house, David said to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I live in a cedar house, but the ark of the LORD’s covenant is in a tent.”
Li te vin rive ke lè David te rete lakay li, ke David te di a Nathan, pwofèt la: “Gade byen, mwen rete nan yon kay fèt ak sèd, men lach akò SENYÈ a rete anba rido.”
2 Nathan said to David, “Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you.”
Nathan te di a David: “Fè tout sa ki nan kè ou, paske Bondye avèk ou.”
3 That same night, the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
Li te vin rive nan menm nwit lan ke pawòl SENYÈ a te parèt a Nathan. Li te di:
4 “Go and tell David my servant, ‘The LORD says, “You shall not build me a house to dwell in;
“Ale pale David, sèvitè Mwen an, ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a, “Ou pa pou bati yon kay pou Mwen pou M rete ladann;
5 for I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day, but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tent to another.
paske Mwen pa t konn rete nan yon kay depi jou ke M te mennen Israël monte a, jis rive jodi a; men Mwen te ale soti de tant a tant e soti yon kote pou rete jis rive a yon lòt.
6 In all places in which I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”’
Nan tout plas kote Mwen te mache avèk Israël yo, èske Mwen te pale yon mo avèk okenn nan jij Israël yo pou Mwen te kòmande yo pou fè bèje a pèp Mwen an, epi te di yo: ‘Poukisa ou pa t bati pou Mwen yon kay an sèd?’”
7 “Now therefore, you shall tell my servant David, ‘The LORD of Armies says, “I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people Israel.
Alò, pou sa, konsa ou va pale ak sèvitè Mwen an, David: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ a dèzame yo: “Mwen te retire ou nan pak kote ou t ap swiv mouton, pou devni chèf sou pèp Mwen an, Israël.
8 I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.
Mwen te avèk ou tout kote ke ou te ale, e te koupe devan ou tout lènmi ou yo. Konsa, Mwen va fè yon non pou ou pare ak pi gwo moun sou latè yo.
9 I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be moved no more. The children of wickedness will not waste them any more, as at the first,
Mwen va chwazi yon plas pou pèp Israël Mwen an e va plante yo, pou yo kab rete nan pwòp plas yo, pou yo pa vin deplase ankò. Konsa, mechan yo p ap epwize yo ankò tankou oparavan,
10 and from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that the LORD will build you a house.
depi jou ke M te kòmande jij yo vini sou pèp Israël Mwen an. Konsa, Mwen va soumèt tou lènmi ou yo. Anplis, Mwen di ou, ke SENYÈ a va bati yon kay pou ou.
11 It will happen, when your days are fulfilled that you must go to be with your fathers, that I will set up your offspring after you, who will be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
Lè jou yo acheve pou ou oblije ale jwenn zansèt ou yo, Mwen va plase youn nan desandan apre ou yo, ki va nan fis ou yo; epi Mwen va etabli wayòm pa li.
12 He will build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.
Li va bati pou Mwen yon kay e mwen va etabli twòn li jis pou tout tan.
13 I will be his father, and he will be my son. I will not take my loving kindness away from him, as I took it from him who was before you;
Mwen va papa li e li va fis Mwen. Mwen p ap retire lanmou dous Mwen sou li, tankou Mwen te retire li sou sila ki te avan ou an.
14 but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever. His throne will be established forever.”’”
Men Mwen va etabli li lakay Mwen ak nan wayòm Mwen an jis pou tout tan e twòn li an va etabli nèt pou tout tan.”’”
15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
Selon tout pawòl sa yo e selon vizyon sila a, konsa Nathan te pale ak David.
16 Then David the king went in and sat before the LORD; and he said, “Who am I, LORD God, and what is my house, that you have brought me this far?
Konsa, wa David te antre e te chita devan SENYÈ a epi te di: “Se kilès mwen ye, O SENYÈ a, Bondye a e kisa lakay mwen ye pou Ou te mennen m rive jis isit la?
17 This was a small thing in your eyes, O God, but you have spoken of your servant’s house for a great while to come, and have respected me according to the standard of a man of high degree, LORD God.
Sa se te yon ti bagay nan zye Ou, O Bondye, men Ou te pale afè lakay sèvitè Ou a pou anpil tan k ap vini, e te gade mwen kon yon moun gran valè, O SENYÈ Bondye.
18 What can David say yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant.
Kisa, anplis, David kapab di Ou selon onè ki bay a sèvitè Ou a? Paske ou konnen sèvitè Ou.
19 LORD, for your servant’s sake, and according to your own heart, you have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
O SENYÈ, pou koz sèvitè ou a, e selon pwòp kè pa Ou, Ou te prepare tout grandè sa a, pou ta fè konnen tout gran afè sila yo.
20 LORD, there is no one like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
O SENYÈ, nanpwen lòt tankou Ou, ni nanpwen okenn Bondye sof ke Ou, selon tout sa ke nou te tande avèk zòrèy nou.
21 What one nation in the earth is like your people Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, to make you a name by great and awesome things, in driving out nations from before your people whom you redeemed out of Egypt?
Epi ki lòt nasyon sou latè ki tankou pèp Ou a, Israël, ke Bondye te ale peye ranson a Li menm yon pèp; pou fè yon non pou Ou pa bagay ki te gran e mèvèye yo, lè Ou te pouse, fè soti tout lòt nasyon yo devan pèp Ou a, ke Ou te rachete, fè soti nan Egypte.
22 For you made your people Israel your own people forever; and you, LORD, became their God.
Paske pèp Ou a, Israël, Ou te fè pwòp pèp Ou a jis pou tout tan e Ou menm, O SENYÈ, te vin Bondye pa yo.
23 Now, LORD, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken.
Koulye a, O SENYÈ, kite pawòl ke Ou te pale pa sèvitè Ou a, selon lakay li vin etabli jis pou tout tan an. Fè jan Ou te pale a.
24 Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel. The house of David your servant is established before you.’
Kite non pa Ou vin etabli e onore jis pou tout tan, epi di: SENYÈ dèzame yo se Bondye a Israël la, yon Bondye menm pou Israël. Konsa, lakay David, sèvitè Ou a se etabli devan Ou.
25 For you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you.
Paske Ou menm, O Bondye mwen, te revele a sèvitè Ou a, ke Ou va bati pou li yon kay. Pou sa, sèvitè Ou a te twouve kouraj pou vin priye devan Ou.
26 Now, LORD, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant.
Koulye a, O SENYÈ, Ou se Bondye e te pwomèt bon bagay sa a sèvitè Ou a.
27 Now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, LORD, have blessed, and it is blessed forever.”
Konsa, sa te fè Ou plezi pou beni lakay sèvitè Ou a, pou li kapab kontinye jis pou tout tan devan Ou. Paske Ou menm, O SENYÈ, te fè l beni e li menm vin beni jis pou tout tan.”
